Ep. 154: Is the Book of Revelation Understandable?

This week we begin a discussion on how to approach the book of Revelation. We talk about the nature of apocalyptic literature, the importance of recognizing biblical genres, and some of the ways genre can be misunderstood or misused. We also examine the early church’s understanding of Revelation, the influence of Origen on biblical interpretation, and why the apocalyptic reading of Revelation has gained significant momentum in recent years. Inquisition: Is there a danger in reading the Bible too literally? Is it possible to do so?

Ep. 153: A Biblically Illiterate Generation!

What is the societal impact of our culture removing the Bible from school, and culture? How is it that so many children don’t even know the 10 commandments? What are the gospel implications of this? How should we evangelize a generation in such darkness? Inquisition: Are you alarmed at people waiting to get married in the mid to late thirties?

Ep. 151: What if You Only Had the Bible?

This week we dive into the exclusive power and influence of the Bible in the lives of believers. Before we get into that topic we hit some current issues like: Trump in China, the redistricting wars, War in Iran among a few others. On the topic of the supremacy and exclusivity of the Bible, Mike talks about why he is so passionate about this topic. We then discuss the nuances of what we are saying. When a genuine believer seeks to be a better: mother, father, husband, wife, child, elder or some other type of ministry leader, where do they turn? Why are we so quick to turn to books about the Bible, rather than the Bible? What is the cause and effect of this subtle turn away from the text to books about the text? Does this mean we are against all extra biblical sources? NO, but when the extra displaces the power source, what are the dangers?
